Going to the library

Before having kids, the only time I spent time in the library was when it was final and I needed to catch up on my study. But teaching them to learn to read and love to read is one of my major to-do that I want to step it up this year. I have to say that I have been to the library more often now than ever but it's still not on the regular basis.

Now that I have a friend who also takes her kids to the library on the regular basis. I decided to join her. :) She will be my motivation to go there. Plus my daughter loves to play with her daughters so it will be like a playdate in the library.. I know.. I know.. We have to tell them to be keep the voice down. :)

It's such a fun outing for the kids and it costs nothing for me. The library here in Forsyth county is not as big as in big counties or cities. But I like the size as it seems more manageable to find book and watch the kids. Plus they do have good kids section with lot of books for them to choose from.

I love that they provide a list for non-reader like me to check out various books with different topics for my kids. Like train specific book, plane book, book for toddler, book for kindergartener.. and a lot more.. The personel there is super nice and very helpful.

I just wish they will have current movies for us to check out.

We went there after dinner right around 7 p.m. I think it's such a good timing. We gave them a bath first so when we got home they can hop on to bed.

The library is not that busy at this time and it helps limit us on spending too much time there. Not that's it's such a bad thing but come on.. I have other chores to do as well. So this will give us enough time to pick out the books, read a few, play on a computer a bit and then head home.

Finally, I get to use the portion of my tax that I have been paying.
